Bloomberg announced a strategic collaboration with Databricks, the Data and AI company, allowing mutual customers to seamlessly access Bloomberg’s extensive data offerings via Data License and cloud-based data management solution Data License Plus (DL+). These solutions have been designed to facilitate seamless data integration, setting the stage for the acceleration of data analysis, insights generation and unified governance for structured and unstructured data, as well as artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) on any cloud or platform.
The collaboration underscores the industry’s growing demand for comprehensive data solutions that can be effortlessly integrated into existing workflows. Bloomberg Data License content includes but is not limited to reference, pricing, regulatory data, corporate actions and ESG data covering more than 70 million securities and 40,000 data fields. Users of the service can take data from their Bloomberg Bulk subscriptions and complement them with customized datasets from Bloomberg’s Per Security service. This ensures users get the right data to meet their workflow needs, all backed by Bloomberg’s Unified Data Model.
DL+ is Bloomberg’s cloud-based data management solution that aggregates, organizes and links a customer’s licensed Bloomberg Data License content, making it easier to use throughout the enterprise while reducing clients’ data ingestion efforts. The solution allows customers to control the scheduling of data acquisition and delivery to meet the strict timing requirements of their specific organization’s processes and allows customers to build on cloud technologies while maintaining transparency, consistency, quality, stability and the specific dataset needs of their organization.
